Re: MoveAddict still vaporware.
Thanks Randy, Esther, and Chuck, I now have it working, though after what amounted to three installs I could have sure done a lot of copying and deleting and saved the five bucks :) I initially attempted to follow Esther's instructions, but cut had no affect. I then hid MoveAddict from both the doc and status menu. This apparently caused a warning to display which precluded going into the dialog. I tried rebooting, to no avail. I then tried the suggestion I received from the support group, which was to launch the terminal app and enter: "defaults delete com.kapeli.moveaddict". This time it appeared to be successful (without any additional parms) since it was necessary to reenter my registration. I then took the following steps over both "unknown" fields: 1. Interact: 2. Even though Mouse is configured to follow VO I pressed vo-command-f5 for good measure. 3. Confirmed that the mouse was in the field (vo-f5). 4. Press the desired shortcut key (i.g. command-x for cut). 5. Stop interacting. As Chuck observed, the fields still show "unknown", but I am now able to cut/paste. Best regards.

Re: Dropbox accessibility
I'm not sticking up for Dropbox but perhaps there's not much they can do, how is the software written for a start? It may not be written in a programming language that's compatible with Voiceover. Yes of course it would be nice to see Dropbox more accessible, I use it here and I use the paid version but 2 things to bare in mind. Firstly, most people are using the feee version of Dropbox thus Dropbox themselves are not making any money for the customer on their software so they may feel given that the choice is clear to the user, if you don't like what we offer then go somewhere else, you may like to try Sendspace for example. And finally, the developers of Dropbox are under no legal obligation whatever to make their software accessible as far as I'm aware.

Re: Dropbox accessibility
In theory if the government were to use it it would have to be made accessible.

Re: scanning
There isn't anything else apart from file that I can tell. How do i get my scanner to work? i'm using a printer and scanner in one. The printer works fine withthe mac, so how do i get the scanning to work. Steph - Original Message - From: Geoff Waaler I too am using tthe tryal version of FineReader express and have never gotten it to work, so this suggestion may be worth every penny you paid for it :). Disclaimer aside, I believe you need to select your scanner in the menu associated with "get images from". If your only choice is "file" then either you don't have a Twane scanner, or the software supporting your scanner is not recognized by ABBYY. Once your scanner is selected, pressing a button such as: "convert to text document" should activate your scanner. Except on my system where it consistently hangs up even though I have a twane compatible device. Hope you get further than I have so far.

Re: scanning
So Mary, what do you use to scan? So far, iris is not worth it since i can't download it to try. Steph - Original Message - From: Mary Otten Your experience with the hang ups with abbyy FR express mirrors my sighted husband's when he tried this app at school on the macbook the school provides and a scanner which works fine on the Windows side with Omnipage and is, so far as he can tell, twain compliant. He gave up on Abbyy entirely after messing around with it for a while and not being able to get any scanning action at all. the whole process sounds entirely like way too much hassle to me, although I know there are people on this list who use abbyy and say it works great for them.

Re: Drag&Drop across windows
Hi, I saw the procedure for dragging and dropping and i couldn't help but wondering, doesn't VO have a command/commands that puts one window on one half of the screen and the other on the other half? I think so. That way you don't need to bother with all this resizing and moving stuff.

Re: Dropbox accessibility
Yes, but accessible is a broad term. For the most part, I happen to find dropbox accessible. Not for nothing, I rarely, no. Never found myself needing to change any preferences after I installed. it. Their isn't many options in there to begin with. But I can do what dropbox is pretty much meant to do. Save files in the cloud and access them on all my devices that have an internet connection. Not saying I don't want the preference issue fixed of course.

Re: Drag&Drop across windows
Hello Krister, I can't find a command that splits the screen into two equal windows. The commands I know of divide the screen into 9 sections and that won't work for this procedure.

Re: scanning
Hello Steph, Try scanning using Image Capture which is already on your Mac. That will create a file for ABBYY FineReader to open. I use it this way for single pages, but for books, I use VueScan to scan the whole book into one file then the file is opened automatically by FineReader. VueScan creates much clearer images than Image Capture, so the results are much better.

Re: finding pages on facebook
Hi All! Ok maybe facebook have not implemented that in the UK yet! All I can say is I can still get to my pages from the friends link! So I'll put down what happens from when I log in! [ this is m.facebook ] On the home screen I go down to the friends link and vo+space on that! On the next screen I can scroll down to the pages link [ this is just after phonebook link] and vo+space on pages! Then I am on the pages that I have liked! :] So if this does not happen to you then I predict I might be getting your version soon! But not yet! All the best! Colin Qapla!

Re: Apple's online store reveals Verizon iPhone voice plans starting at $39.99
Yeah, but Ricardo, you're missing a big piece here. Last week I was asking about figuring out whether my area has LTE. I got my answer to that question, and it doesn't. So, yes, there'll be a newer version of the iPhone released shortly after I buy the VZ iPhone. But if I don't have LTE here, it doesn't really matter. True, I'll be left out of some of the new features, but I figure I'll get a year out of the iPhone 4, and then when we have LTE out here, I'll get the iphone 5.

Re: Apple's online store reveals Verizon iPhone voice plans starting at $39.99
Hi Donna, Nope. I understand that piece to the puzzle. Its really not a piece at all in my opinion. I don't think the iPhone 5 will have 4 g anyway. And if it did, what your saying is still a weak position I think. For example, Lets say you buy an iPhone 4 on VZ. The iPhone 5 comes out in June, and it happens to have LTE. Its ok because there is no coverage in your area. Cool. Your not missing anything. But what if your area has LTE in September? Or October? You will still have your 3g iPhone 4. Verizon would really start rolling out LTE at a blistering pace if the iPhone 5 was a LTE handset. But of course, there is a lot of if and buts in there. lol. I was just referring to people who would not have bought an iPhone 4 on verizon now plunking down the cash just to have unlimited data.

Re: Apple's online store reveals Verizon iPhone voice plans starting at $39.99
I don't think it's such a weak position. Remember, I didn't upgrade to the iPhone 4 last year. My 3gs has served me fine. I'm just not sure that the iphone 4 is going to be instantly obsolete like you suggest. I think people will have to evaluate the new features of the iphone, and then make a decision as to whether it's worth it to upgrade to the 5. Personally, I may well hang on to my VZ iphone until a model with lte does come out. Donna On Jan 28, 2011, at 8:01 AM, Ricardo Walker wrote: > Hi Donna, > > Nope.

Re: scanning
Where would i download it from? Steph - Original Message - From: Colin M Try scanning using Image Capture which is already on your Mac. That will create a file for ABBYY FineReader to open. I use it this way for single pages, but for books, I use VueScan to scan the whole book into one file then the file is opened automatically by FineReader. VueScan creates much clearer images than Image Capture, so the results are much better.

Re: scanning
In fact, although this has been a concern for about two years now, none of the people who have gotten this to work have ever posted a model of scanner that actually does work seemlessly. No, I think one was posted but it was a business model in the $700 price range. Any other time you look deeper into this you invariably find out that the user needs to jump through some kind of hoop to get scanning action. It's cool if it works for you, but I find it very sketchy myself.

Re: Apple's online store reveals Verizon iPhone voice plans starting at $39.99
Right, Its not upgrading or not upgrading. Its the reasons one might use to do either. If you get terrible AT&T service like you do, it sounds very sensible to me to grab an iPhone 4. Or if your phone is falling apart. I just urge people, especially blind people, to try to keep current with hardware if they can. It could mean enhanced accessibility, and or, productivity. For example, the addition of LED flash, a faster processor, and a better camera, probably leads to better and faster results using an app like oMoby, and aid colors. Just running voiceover or zoom takes a way from the devices resources that sighted people don't need to compensate for. In the case of the limited offering of the unlimited data plan from VZ, I think people should think long and hard about this. Do you have reliable wifi access at home, work, school, or other places you spend a lot of time? Does your usage now, comes anywhere near lets say 2GB of data a month? Depending on the answers, you might not even need an unlimited data plan.

Re: scanning
Hello Steph, There are two versions of VueScan 9 for Mac, a 32-bit and a 64-bit version. If your scanner is fairly new, you should get the 64-bit version. VueScan costs $39.99 US for a year's support or $79.99 for a lifetime. The trial version leaves a watermark on the scans.

Re: scanning
Hello Erik, I can get ABBYY FineReader to recognise my Canon Lide 700F portable USB scanner, but it's a bit fiddly. I find it much easier and more effective to use VueScan to do the scanning and FineReader to do the OCR. VueScan produces beautiful images and FineReader does an almost perfect job with OCR. I set VueScan to produce TIFF files and set TIFF files to always open with ABBYY FineReader. In this way, I launch VueScan, scan as many pages as I need, then FineReader is launched automatically. I've set a shortcut for "Convert to Text Document", so all I then have to do is enter the file name and where to put it. It all sounds much more complicated than it really is. I've demonstrated this scanning procedure to very sceptical Windows users and they were impressed by its quality and efficiency. I'll send you my user guide off list so you can see for yourself. cheers, Anne -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: scanning
Greetings Ann and others, Okay, so I gather the reason to get both VUEScan and FineReader is that the former will run the scanner and the latter provides a much better OCR result. Does finereader resolve the orientation? There are eight ways to put a page on the scanner and only one is correct. One would not need to run through all four iterations for the blank side, but for many items which are not always printed lengthwise, it could take as many as four scans to get it right. Mean time, when the orientation is not correct, it takes much longer to recognize, and you end up with a garbage result. So I will probably download VUEScan and see for myself but thought I'd ask here, because if ABBYY cannot determine orientation, I will stick with K1000 for the foreseeable future. Best regards.

Re: scanning
Hello Geoff, ABBYY FineReader detects orientation. It also gets pages in the right order when you scan a double-page at a time which is what I do when scanning books. VueScan doesn't detect orientation but it will do OCR, though not very well.

Hi, just to add to your contribution, eyepal, anyone tried the mac version, and with what resault? I'm in a hurry to get a solution, and am not sure I'm fond of buying two programs, also, which scanners work best these days.

Copied text to Dropbox Hello Dropbox team. I'd like to report a problem that I would class as a bug report my self. This has to do with the lack of accessibility within the Dropbox for mac application. When I launch the Dropbox app, I get no feedback from the built in screen reading software on the mac. VoiceOver is the free screen reading solution built in to every mac and Apple's developer documentation makes reference on how an application can be made to be accessible while using VoiceOver.

Re: scanning
Stephanie: Let me simplify this for you: If you look up vuescan, on Google it will come up with the website that discusses it's ups, downs and backwards and forwards.:) It also tells which scanners are supported, and a lot of them are. Download Vuescan as a trial, and install it. When you open it, there are six tabs for selecting various settings. You'll find the scanner under the input tab, I'd bet on it.:) I'm still learning how to work with these. But, I think Vuescan is far better at linking up with various scanners. It worked with both my Canon and my hp, (with the hp taking a bit longer to do a scan.) It might then be easier to determine whether in fact you need Abbyy for what you want to accomplish.

I find it much easier and more effective to use VueScan to do the scanning and FineReader to do the OCR. VueScan produces beautiful images and FineReader does an almost perfect job with OCR. I set VueScan to produce TIFF files and set TIFF files to always open with ABBYY FineReader. In this way, I launch VueScan, scan as many pages as I need, then FineReader is launched automatically. I've set a shortcut for "Convert to Text Document", so all I then have to do is enter the file name and where to put it. It all sounds much more complicated than it really is.

Hi Teresa, Using IMAP and filtering list messages into a "label" I receive all posts (including my own) I assume POP would be applicable at least in terms of the web interface -- since you're not synchronizing labels (aka folders) with your iPhone and/or other computers, however I'm not sure if this will cause them to appear in your in-box or respect what ever filter you defined locally.

Re: Apple's online store reveals Verizon iPhone voice plans starting at $39.99
Hey Ricardo, Good points. The only thing I'd say about opting for unlimited data, is that it's hard to predict what your data usage will be in the future. I never thought I would be a data hog, but lately I've been really into downloading movies and tv shows on my phone, so my data usage has gone up quite a bit. If you have unlimited data you don't have to worry about changes/increases in your data use. I guess in this respect I'm like Scott, I think unlimited anything rocks! lol Cheers, Donna On Jan 28, 2011, at 8:42 AM, Ricardo Walker wrote: > Right, > > Its not upgrading or not upgrading.

ftpmount on the mac
Hello all, I am using the program filer on my iphone4 as file manager. This program has a ftp and http server built in so that I can easily transfer files/folders from my mac to my iphone. I would like to mount my iphone with the ftp-protocol so that it becomes as new area in my finder window. I tried the following: command+k (from inside the finder) and then I type!d the ftp-address and corresponding port as described in the filer program. When I do this, a new ares appears in my finder but it seems to be read-only. After som search on the internet , I fund something about macfuse and the corresponding program macfusion. After installing this, it seems not to work. The time to try the connection is set to 60 seconds so, that should be enough, I think. After a while , I receive a timeout. I could also use a ft-program like syberduck but, this seems much more complicated to transfer files from my macbook to my iphone. So, I am looking after a (free) program to make a ftpmount with also write-options to connect to the ftp-server in filer on my iphone. Any hints for accessible programs to do this is very welcome. Thanx alot for your! help. Kind regards, William -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: scanning
Hi Steph, I don't use the Mac for scanning. I have a Windows pc and I use K1000. I am hopeful that as more people move to the Mac, a more robust, less fiddly solution for scanning will become available, but in the meantime, I use what I've used for ages.

Re: Gmail via Pop?
Hi teresa: You can also set up filters in gmail, settings where you have it go to, for example the macvisionaries mailbox if it has that and your name on it. It's been a while since I did it. But, If you explore settings in Google/gmail, it's possible to do this. If you want, I can look further into it and try to clarify the steps I took.

Re: [acb-l] Read2Go App for Reading Bookshare books on "Apple devices
As do I. Bookshare is promising a lot, and I hope they can deliver. My natural impatience is unleashed, for sure. By the way, am I the only one who tried to sign up for the notification list and received absolutely no confirmation that I'd done so? ? The page just dropped me back to the form without even a "Thank you." I'm not sure what to think of that. I just hope they do indeed notify us when it's released.

Read2Go is the most full-featured, accessible DAISY reader for the Apple device market. This very easy-to-use app for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch connects directly to Bookshare for immediate on-the-go reading. From within the app, individual users and schools supporting students can search, download, and read Bookshare books and periodicals and manage their books in a bookshelf. In addition, Read2Go reads DAISY 2.02 and 3.0 materials from some other sources. Based on reading preferences, users will have a wide range of options for font size, color and background color. Word-by-word highlighting with simultaneous text and speech enables multi-modal reading. The app includes high-quality Acapela voices for highly natural narration. Users will have options to turn the text-to-speech on and off and adjust the rate to their personal preferences. Further, Read2Go supports all levels of DAISY navigation that are included in the structure of the book. "The Read2Go app is so exciting for so many reasons," said Valerie Maples. "Both my husband and daughter have been loyal Bookshare users for years and have waited for the release of an app that would let us read Bookshare books on the iPad. The app should attract a large audience, the entire population with print disabilities around the globe!" "For many students who are blind, physically, or learning disabled, using their iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch means much more than access to the books they need for classes. It means they can read the same books as their peers on the same devices," said long-time Bookshare advocate Deborah Armstrong, Alternate Media Specialist for DeAnza College in Cupertino, California. "The Read2Go app will offer many advantages for people who are blind as well as those who have physical or learning disabilities, including many features not available on other DAISY readers for Apple devices; the fact that Benetech is releasing this app is a very good thing." "This new app furthers our Benetech Literacy goal of making printed content accessible to individuals with print disabilities however and wherever they want it. With Read2Go, we're offering a mobile reading solution based on strong demand from our users," said Betsy Beaumon, Vice President and General Manager of the Literacy Program at Benetech, the nonprofit organization that operates Bookshare. "The accessibility built-in to iOS devices and their widespread and growing use highlight their potential to help close the gap for students and other individuals with print disabilities." Read2Go will be available this quarter in the iTunes App store and will sell for $19.99. Interested users who would like immediate notification when the app is available can provide contact information on a secure notify list. Additional features, such as study tools, images, and multiple languages, will become be available in the coming months. For access to Bookshare books on these devices, qualified individuals will need a Bookshare

Since then my Safari history is not maintained; the most recent entry is from he day before I reinstalled. I was kind of surprised that all my files were retained. I don't recall seeing an option to reformat my hard drive and falsely assumed this would occur,; perhaps I did not read the dialogs carefully, but I digress. I checked preferences in both Safari and Webkit but did not find anything applicable. In an attempt to resolve a different issue I ran the disk utility and repaired permissions after having reinstalled. I looked in /Users/USerID/Library/Safari and found two possibly applicable files named: "History.plist" and "HistoryIndex.sk". I opened the plist file but couldn't tell if the values were set correctly, hence didn't want to mess with them. I then looked at permissions, and noticed that the plist file was last updated just before I reinstalled the OS, but the index file's time stamp corresponds to the last time I launched Webkit or Safari. My last step involved a little GIYFing but that has netted me nothing so far. This isn't really a VO issue, but since there is quite a pool of knowledgable people hanging out here I decided to ask if anyone can offer a suggestion.

Re: Safari history no longer updated after Snow leopard reinstall.
Hi Jeff, Could it be a permissions problem? If Safari no longer has permission to update its history list, that could be an issue. This is admittedly a shot in the dark, and not a very likely one at that. Have you considered simply erasing the whole Safari folder structure and starting fresh? This is drastic, but at least if you did that you could isolate potential contamination from your first instal. Hope this helps, Zack.

turning on/off video in a call in new skype beta
This is what I'm trying to do. If there's a way to do it while in a call, it's sure not obvious to me.

Recording both external mic and a system input on the Macbook Pro
Hello all, Does anyone know if there is a utility for Snow Leopard that would allow me to access "system input" and external mic input" at the same time for recording purposes? I know that some commercial software, like SnapZ Pro, is capable of doing that. Just to clarify things... I am using one of those Apple headsets that come with iPhone. Thanks for any advice.

Re: Apple's online store reveals Verizon iPhone voice plans starting at $39.99
Why do you think the new IPhone 5 won't support 4G? At least HSPA+ I think is reasonable to expect. The 4 supported HUPSA.

Remember, I didn't upgrade to the iPhone 4 last year. My 3gs has served me fine. I'm just not sure that the iphone 4 is going to be instantly obsolete like you suggest. I think people will have to evaluate the new features of the iphone, and then make a decision as to whether it's worth it to upgrade to the 5. Personally, I may well hang on to my VZ iphone until a model with lte does come out. Donna On Jan 28, 2011, at 8:01 AM, Ricardo Walker wrote: > Hi Donna, > > Nope.
